A man was arrested Thursday afternoon in connection with a July 10 shooting.

Antoine T. Marks Sr., 24, was arrested 1:15 p.m. in the 1500 block of S.W. 24th, according to the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office.

Marks faces one count of aggravated battery and one count of aggravated assault, according to Capt. Phil Higdon.

“(I) sincerely appreciated the work of (my) deputies and the cooperation and assistance of the media, public, U.S. Marshals and the Topeka Police Department,” Shawnee County Sheriff Herman Jones said in the release.

Marks is accused of shooting 19-year-old Corey S. Mason in the leg at a mobile home park at 4420 S.W. 61st, just southwest of the city.
